lsat scale represents the percentile where you scored, compared to other test takers. amount of test takers does not change this scale."hardness" goes up and down. when tests require more right answers to get a reported score, that test is considered "easier".

Many more people taking the test so i guess they justified it by making it harder than it has been in recent years...?

wouldnt make a difference. its not your score that counts, its your score compared to everyone else. your reported score is a percentile. add in more people and they should fall into the same bell curve..

the only time your point is going to hold us back is when schools get more applicants and there are more people with X score like you. but it wont change your score.

which is one factor of ranking the schools. but by that token it should be ahead of davis and hastings. it does have top faculty and its cheap (public) but it still lacks alumni and accreditation which i think will hold the first few classes back a bit...
